Ladies, how big do you want a guy's arms to be?

[ImJustCurious13]

If you want to be more specific, leave it in your opinion.

SMALL

AVERAGE

BIG

OTHER / IT DOESN'T MATTER

SEE THE POLL

[emmily2396]

It's the wbole body that is important. You can't work only a muscke group and think it looks good. Arnold had big arms but his body was balanced. He wasn't too muscular for his height. The bald guy in the same category with him is just too big for me. The guys from the previous category were good too.

[emmily2396]

Anyway, from the average category the guy bottom left looks the best in my opinion. He's strong but in a way it looks natural.

[ImJustCurious13]

Finding the example pictures were actually harder than I thought.

[emmily2396]

Umm... i know it's hard to make polls like these. You should have added more options for variety. Some of the guys in the average category aren't average, they are slightly above. And the big category is also unclear. You can be big like Arnlod and the guy in the right or like the dude on the left who looks like he took some steroids.

[ImJustCurious13]

The average male arms are about 15 inches (says google), but every time I googled "men with small arms" or "average male arms" they gave me pictures of women, average male bodies not showing arms, bodybuilders and stuff like that.

[emmily2396]

My arms are about 24 cm which is I think about 9.5 inches and. mine look very long and thin. I doubt the average for guys in a healthy weight range is 15inches unless they workout. That should be bigger than my calves and most of the guys I know that don't workout are just a about the size of my calves which is about 13 inches. 15 inches is more for the guys that workout but haven't been doing it for a very long time. The first guy in the average category looks average, the one under him is above in my opinion.

[emmily2396]

by the way, i am talking about the the unflexed size. The flexed size may be a bit bigger

[ImJustCurious13]

I thought people were going to use their own opinion on what small medium and large arms are.

[SngBirdy]

Lol, the average circumference of a males arm is not 15 inches.
Actually, that could be right, because there are a lot of fat people in the world.
But 15 inch muscular arms are fucking huge and brutal bro. Most guys will never achieve that.
The average circumference, without fat, is prolly close to 12-13 inches

[emmily2396]

@SngBirdy Yes, I agree, I even think I exagerated when I said they are the size of my calves (13 inches). 13 inches would be a guy that is strong without lifting. Most are between 10-13 inches. 15 inches isn't insane for a bodybuilder as some can have 20 inch arms. But is a standard for those of average height who want to look built (of course, if they are not fat).

For reference that is how a 15 inch arm looks

[ChiTown33]

reading your guy's convo. had me curious about mine i just checked mine is 13in unflexed and 14 flexed and mine are absoluetly far from big lol. I'm 6'5" though so maybe that plays into it.

[SngBirdy]

@ChiTown33 Yes that plays a role. 14 inch arms look comically small on a 6'5" guy.

I don't know any girls who like the "BIG" body type. I don't know why so many men try to have it. There might be some girls who do like it, yeah, but meh, I think it's too much.

in my opinion, as long as you're not too underweight, or too overweight, it's good.

[SngBirdy]

Men have a different perspective on what muscle mass is considered "perfect" and what isn't.
But its actually not specific to men. Girls who get into gym-lifestyle and working out also have a very exagerated image of the perfect size of legs and butts. I see fitness girls on instagram post progression pictures and say "i never want to go back do my horrible self in the past" and you see a perfectly fine girl with a perfectly fine shapely lower body.

Its rather a phenomen of those whole Fitness-Trend

[ImJustCurious13]

Most men want big arms for their own self pleasure not for getting women. I want to build big Arnold Schwarzenegger arms to please myself, I don't care if women don't like it, I want big arms I'm gonna get big arms.

[SngBirdy]

Protip: Men who say "NAY I DONT WORKOUT FOR GIRLS" are liers in 98% of cases.
Just like girls

[ImJustCurious13]

@SngBirdy True, but not all. I mean bodybuilders do it for a paycheck.

[SngBirdy]

If your goal is a physique that looks asthetically pleasing and attractive, you are mainly doing it for girls. Its not a coincidence that your "goal body" is also a body that would be considered very attractive by girls. Its a mutual thing.
Now you could argue about Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was asthetic, but too "big" for most girls.
Could go either way in this case.

[ImJustCurious13]

@SngBirdy I'm saying bodybuilders do it for a check because thats their lifestyle. I don't think Phil Heath and Big Ramy are trying to look like Brad Pitt.

[Nxtawm]

Average, the small is too small, just looks unhealthy. And the arms on big is as big as my head if not bigger so no. I mean I'd be open to it I guess but I still prefer average

[Jemini_Crocket]

Between big and average is ideal for me.

Protip: Size doesn't really matter. You can have mere 14inch arms, but if they are muscular and "toned" ( i hate that word) you are good to gay.
If you have big arms but they are fat and ugly, no one will care

[Skali9119Liska]

Good to gay? 😲

[SngBirdy]

@Skali9119Liska What are you saying

[Skali9119Liska]

Stupid boi

[Just_A_Guy2018]

They want to know how big his bank account is over his arms size mate.

[kinda-confused]

Average I don’t want him to look like the hulk 😂😂

[omgjassy]

That is not average hahahaha, and small scares me do they even eat? Gosh

[TacosRAwesome]

Big enough to carry me and the groceries home. Separately.

[Anonymous]

big but not like so big that their veins show and they can bleed out from a small paper cut

[ChiTown33]

[DinaM]

I couldn't care less!

[sarahhcmarie]
